Customer Review

right from the first installation work the remote control correctly. Contact seller who immediately promised the same day to send a replacement device, but that is not arrived until today.
The device itself has a lot of problems.
The part is (like almost all other DVB-T sticks on the German market) very warm, so the chips are not cooled inside and have accordingly a very short life. While the USB port is a hot-plug connection, will pull out after and then plugging the DVB-T sticks selbiger no longer recognized by the software.
The software provided has been extremely bad and rude operation programmed. When switching to EPG during the reception of a transmitter, it does not end up approximately at the EPG this transmitter, but somewhere else. There, one must by the unordered list of EPG clickers until you have your station again. Rather than simply display the EPG text, the Software with small screen immediately switches from full-screen to the very easy unfriendly ArcSoft Media to and it is only short excerpts of EPG text to see, never the whole belonging to the broadcast text. For this gigantic amounts of EPG data on the hard disk in the background, so much that the operating system reports after several days of operation of the TV receiver store it. As well, one of the programmers do not understand the system stack and pops the disk with data to mercilessly.
In this whole elaborate and very easy to use ArcSoft Media unfriendly surface you should do without, a simpler, more user-friendly for TV software would have been better the device.

Actually this device can classify with this bad software in the currently on the German market located äzend poor DVB-T stick and would have earned exactly how this zero stars.
The 1 star I forgive only for the good idea, finally a DVB-T to bring stick, which does not have this tiny and mechanically extremely vulnerable mini-antenna socket, but just a very good normal TV aerial socket and for good receiving strong telescope - magnetic mount antenna.
All in all one can say of this product, the idea was good, but unfortunately the execution poor.
I can not recommend the device and the seller does not.
